From which information do you conclude you have still an i686 kernel
running? If you take it from uname -a then see what that command prints
out on my Athlon system:

$ uname -a
Linux sirendipity 2.4.22-1.2174.nptl #1 Wed Feb 18 16:38:32 EST 2004
i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

Same should come up on yours too.
